The Strongest Tribe

In the clan hall, Xia Tuo arranged the clan affairs, and the War Master Hall and the Shadow Hall will be responsible for the elders, guarding the stability of the tribe and the mountains during cultivation.

In addition, when the elder is promoted, Xia Tuo himself will sit in the tribe, even if there is a real disturbance, he is not afraid.

Elder Hong and Elder Lu left the clan hall with Li, who had been promoted earlier, and began to temporarily take over the defense and safety of each domain.

Luo, the elder of the witch hall, also signaled to withdraw from the family hall, including Shao Ming, the master of the Baicao hall. There was no way for her to practice witchcraft. Compared with the promotion of totem warriors, witchcraft was more about understanding.

Then, a jade jade appeared in Xia Tuo's hand. It was the jade jade that was the carrier of the secret cave that he had obtained from the young master who had been buried in the ancient uncle's body.

Even if Qiao'er configured the witch medicine for promotion, in order to ensure that the chances of promotion for the clansmen increased, he was going to open the secret cave and let the clansmen enter the spiritual spring hall in the secret realm to practice.

He has never considered the use of the secret cave that contains the spiritual spring. If it is hidden in his hands and not used, it is tantamount to getting this treasure for nothing.

No matter how good something is, if it can't improve the strength of oneself or the tribe, it's not as good as a stone, at least the stone can build a wall.

hum!

The next moment, Yu Jue was suspended in the family hall, and silver light witch talismans emerged from Yu Jue, turning into Zhang Xu's size, intertwined with each other, and a silver light witch talisman gate emerged, and then the silver light gate opened, revealing path.

follow me.

Afterwards, Xia Tuo got up from the main seat, walked towards the secret realm, and disappeared in the silver light gate. The elders and guards in the palace all showed surprise in their eyes, and it took a while to realize that they followed Xia Tuo's Walk towards the secret realm behind.

Although I don't know what it is, but the patriarch is in front, naturally there is nothing to doubt.

After crossing the path of silver light, everyone appeared in the cave of the secret realm. The secret realm constituted its own world, with unique operating rules, and a panoramic view of the vegetation and mountains.

Xia Tuo led a group of elders directly into the Lingquan Hall, and the rich aura greeted them, causing the inner breath derived from everyone's bodies to be involuntarily aroused.

You will practice in this Lingquan Temple, and cooperate with the promotion witch medicine prepared by Qiao'er.

In Lingquan Hall, Xia Tuo turned around and said to the elders and guards in front of him.

yes.

Qiaoer.

Then, Xia Tuo said to Qiao'er.

Uncle Patriarch, Qiaoer knows.

For this promotion, Qiaoer, the high priest of the clan, will always be here, ready to deal with unexpected situations when the elders break through.

This is the ultimate that Xia Tuo can do. Lingquan, witch medicine, and priests are three-pronged. It is up to people to make things happen. He has done everything he can think of, and then I will leave it to the elders and guardians.

After finishing speaking, he left the Lingquan Hall. It will take some days for the elders in the clan to guard the breakthrough.

The promotion of the realm does not mean breakthrough, it takes at least a few days of precipitation, and when each of them adjusts their energy to the peak, that is the time to take the witch medicine and promote.

...

The elders of each hall enter the secret realm to practice, and the temporary deputy is handling the family affairs. Some uncertain matters will be directly sent to Xia Ge, and handed over to Mingyue, Qingyu, and Tingyun. If there is an emergency, you can directly visit Xia Tuo.

After arranging the cultivation of the elder guards, Xia Tuo gradually calmed down.

In the summer garden, he sat under the stone pavilion, with a map spread on the stone table in front of him.

This map is Heming Xiage, combined with the exploration of the Shadow Palace of the Xia Tribe over the years, plus the map brought back from the city of Splitting the Earth, combined with each other to redraw the map of the Wangu Mountains and the surrounding eight regions.

Compared with the map of 300,000 miles, the map in his hand is more detailed. The mountains, rivers, and tribes are all marked, which looks clear at a glance.

Chirp!

Outside the tribe, there was a cry of an eagle, and a totem warrior driving Qingcang came from the north, landed in the tribe, and soon appeared in the summer garden.

Patriarch, Commander Lu Chen of the Konghou Region ordered his subordinates to return to the tribe for a message.

Xia Tuo looked at the young man half kneeling in front of him, waved his hand to signal him to stand up, took the animal skin roll he presented and opened it.

Afterwards, the corners of his mouth began to smile, these days really good things come in pairs.

A quasi-sacred gold vein was just discovered in Xuantuyu, and a vein was also discovered at the Konghou River Beach in Konghouyu, and a faint blue ore was attached to the animal skin roll.

The small ore is no more than the size of a finger, but it is as crystal clear as jade, and there is a blue rune floating in it. This is the low-level innate god gold mine.

Order Lu Chen to build a city as soon as possible to collect the scattered people and dig out this kind of ore vein.

yes.

Soon, the totem warrior led the order to leave.

Xia Tuo thought for a while and then said in the direction of Xia Ge: Come here, order the fat elder of the Barter Hall to ask him to find a list of various mineral veins when he goes out.

yes.

It was Ting Yun who was waiting for Xia Tuo's orders at any time today. Hearing Xia Tuo's words, he quickly wrote down his edict and ordered someone to send it out.

...

Hongsang River area.

It has been more than five years since Hongsanghe Stone City was built, and the people in the city have gradually begun to adapt to their current life.

In the past five years, the scattered tribes have gathered together, and naturally they merged with each other. Many babies were born one after another, and new lives were born, which gradually melted the barriers between the scattered tribes in the city.

Now the ethnic groups in the city are getting more and more used to being the citizens of Hongmulberry City, and their original small scattered memories are gradually accumulating.

After all, the memories of the former Sanbu life are precarious. I worry about it every day, and I can't sleep well at night.

But now that life has expectations, and martial arts cultivation has an upward path, some middle-aged fighters may sigh, but seeing their own children, there is new hope in their eyes.

Their generation is dying, but the next generation has hope. They can join the City Guard Army. If they are talented, they can directly enter the Great Xia Tribe and become totem warriors, or even powerful mountain warriors. This is no longer a distant goal. dream.

Now thousands of young people in the city have gone out to the Great Xia Department.

In the city lord's mansion of the inner city of Hongmulberry, the upper seat of the main hall is empty, and on the first stone chair on the left below, Shen Shan is resting with his eyes closed. The city lord might be recalled to the tribe, so Wan Ling led the soldiers to the Shijiao domain , now he is the master of Hongmulberry City for the time being.

Although the city lord has said that after leaving, he will ask the patriarch to succeed him as the city lord of Hongmulberry City, but the edict of the clan has not been issued for a day, and the city lord of Hongmulberry City is afraid.

In the city of nearly 200,000 people, the daily material consumption is a huge figure. Fortunately, after several years of development, the city has basically achieved self-sufficiency.

However, if this is the case, everything will be fine. What is the clan trying to do to move so many people from the depths of the mountains?

The tribe needs to control the mountains, and more importantly, the resources in the mountains. Only tribes with sufficient resources can develop and grow. In the past few years, the city has sent a lot of people, but no resource deposits have been found.

The area of ​​Hongsang River is more than 100 li, and it can be said that it is the largest area in the five regions in the south. There is not even a single iron mine in such a large area. The construction of the city guard army requires the allocation of ore from the clan, which is really true Awkward.

Originally, the cities in various domains were planned to support the tribes, but this is a good thing, such a big city needs the tribes to support ore.

Shen Shan sat in the stone hall, his slightly squinted eyes kept revealing thoughts, everything in the city was under his control at the moment, he had to do something, otherwise how would the clan promote him to be the city lord?

Lin Feng, Qiu Yue, pay my respects to the commander.

Two voices came from outside the mansion hall, pulling Shen Shan back from his meditation.

The two people outside the hall are the two thousand commanders of the city guards. After the three thousand-man warriors in Hongsang City were successively transferred from the clan, the remaining two thousand-man warriors in the city are temporarily controlled by them.

Come in.

Lin Feng and Qiu Yue walked into the main hall. Both of them were very young, not yet thirty years old, and they both came from Sanbu. Now their relatives are all connected to the tribe, and they are protected and supported by the tribe.

Commander, what do you want us to do?

Lin Feng was the first to speak. Since most of the warriors had been taken away from the clan, new warriors had not yet been recruited, and the remaining two thousand-man warriors in the city were very busy recently.

The people in the city are all okay.

Shen Shan said softly, right now the soldiers are empty, and the city lord is not around, the first task of the city is to stabilize, only when everything is stable can other things be done.

The commander is at ease. After several years of integration, most of the city residents have already returned to their hearts. Now that they eat well and live well, they don't have to worry about safety. They can sleep well at night. Who is free to make trouble.

Hearing what the two commanders said, Shen Shan nodded, he knew it too, but he still didn't feel relieved to ask one more question.

After thinking about it, Shen Shan smiled lightly, he hasn't become a city lord yet, is he too nervous.

In this way, our Hongsanghe City has been built for more than five years. Although the armor can be built by ourselves, it needs the ore allocated by the clan. You two also know that the clan has taken more than half of the soldiers in our city, but relying on With the remaining 2,000 soldiers barely defending the city, we will expand our soldiers next.

After thinking for a while, Shen Shan went on to say: Now the tribe has newly established eight domains, adding up to thirteen areas to expand the army. At that time, it will need a lot of weapons and armor. If our Hongsanghe City still needs to rely on the tribe's supply Wouldn't the ore still drag the tribe down?

Let's take it step by step and solve the problem of iron ore shortage first. Lin Feng, you and Qiu Yue took a team of thousand warriors into the mountains to find ores for the city, and left a thousand warriors for me. Defend the city.

Commander, what if...

Qiu Yue groaned softly, although they all felt that the people in the city would return to their hearts, there was a contingency in everything. Originally, 2,000 clan soldiers were not enough. There are only a thousand clan soldiers left.

And they also knew that this was the critical moment for Shen Shan's leadership. Fearing that the city lord would leave, Wan Ling led his soldiers to the Shijiao domain. If there were no accidents, Shen Shan would become the new Hongsanghe city lord.

At this time, if there is really any change in the city, if the patriarch is offended, Shen Shan will not be able to be the city lord under the leadership of Shen Shan.

At this time, it is better to be still than to move.

There is no rush to find the ore lode at this moment. When the patriarch's decree comes down and Shen Shan is actually appointed as the city lord, it will not be too late to mobilize people to find the ore lode at that time.

Shen Shan shook his head, if he really just wanted to become the city lord, it would be good if he was so stable. With his qualifications and status in the Hongsang River area, there is really no other person for the city lord besides him.

However, what he thought was not only that, if he didn't do anything because he was worried about problems, then it would be meaningless for the bird city lord to become the lord.

He can be regarded as someone who followed Xia Tuo very early. When the Xia tribe migrated to the Lu tribe valley, he joined the Xia tribe at that time. , and now at the Kaishan Realm, he is only in his forties, and he is very likely to become a Tianmai Realm fighter in the future.

Do as I say, and besides, I personally sit in the city, and the Shadow Palace sub-helm monitors the entire city, and if something happens, I will detect it in advance.

yes.

Soon, Lin Feng's two thousand commanders each led five hundred clan soldiers and headed towards the wilderness.

For several years, the city has never stopped searching for ore veins, but the roads between the mountains and fields are rugged, and there is even no way to go. The ore veins are hidden underground, and it really takes a little luck to find them.

...

Xia Tribe, Xia Garden.

Deer and Xia Tuo sat facing each other, and there was a scroll of animal skins in front of them, which depicted the catalog of the Eternal Mountain Range.

Patriarch, there are three big rivers in the north of the ancient ruins, which criss-cross and divide the northern region into seven parts. Include the area around Beiqiu as well.

Xia Tuo shook his head lightly, and said that the northern hills should not be moved for the time being, and the area outside the mountains will not be moved at all. Who knows if there will be a big monster crossing the border one day, first consolidate the territory in the mountains.

Divide the north of the ancient ruins into seven regions: Beishan, Luanhe, Qihe, Lianghe, Valley, Pinggu, and Xichuan. Let your Shadow Palace send shadow guards to enter these seven regions respectively to prepare for the next clan battle. Soldiers are ready to move in.

Xia Tuo pointed to the map of the Wangu Mountains, and divided the mountains to the north of the ruins of the Wangu City in one breath.

So far, together with the previous thirteen regions, the entire Eternal Mountain Range has been divided into twenty regions, not including the main region where the Xia tribe is currently located.

yes.

The deer nodded. Now that the big monsters in the mountains have calmed down, only a few little monsters are left, so it's okay to ask the Shadow Guards to investigate these areas in advance.

By the way, is there any movement in Southwest Fengchuan?

Patriarch, the Fengchuan area is very peaceful. There are very few human tribes, and they are all small tribes. There are no large tribes above the middle level. I can't see anything unusual.

After returning from Beiqiu, Lu specially ordered people to go to the Fengchuan Region. You must know that there is a great monster in the God of Tibet hidden thousands of miles away in the Fengchuan Region, so you have to guard against it.

In the tribe, the crowing of the eagle sounded, and some tribesmen returned from outside, and soon appeared in the summer garden.

Report to the patriarch, the leader of the Jiaohe region found a relic of a mineral vein. After investigation, the mineral vein has not been exhausted.

Hearing this, Xia Tuo took the handwritten letter given to him by the leader of the moth, with a smile in his eyes, luck came and he couldn't stop it, and mineral veins were discovered one after another.

This is already the third mineral lode discovered. How could it be possible for a mountain range that can support a powerful Bobu to be as barren as outsiders see it.

When the Wangu Bo tribe was destroyed, these mineral veins could not disappear completely. This is not the case when the soldiers from various regions left, and the mineral veins were discovered one after another.

Order all regions to pay attention to searching for mineral resources in their respective regions while gathering scattered people.

Soon Shi Ya copied more than ten copies of his order and sent them to each domain.

...

ten days later.

The elders and guardians who broke through into the secret cave and the spiritual spring had some movement.

The first person to be promoted to the Tianmai Realm was Fear. He had already touched the edge of the Tianmai Realm, and this time he got what he wanted.

summer garden.

He just broke through and still felt a little unstable, so he sat in front of Xia Tuo.

Patriarch, Shen Shan has been with me for several years. He is down-to-earth, has his own thoughts, and has the strength to open mountains. He can replace me as the city lord of Hongsanghe City.

Hearing this, Xia Tuo was pensive in his heart.

The Hongsang River area is located in the southeast of the Wangu Mountains. To the south, you can enter Tuze, to the southeast is Cangshui, and to the east is Dongfu. Although the mountains are undulating and the road is difficult to walk, it is a border with the mountains.

In his mental plan, the Eternal Twenty region is the outermost region of the mountain range. The city lords of each region will be cultivated in the Tianmai realm, and the city lords in the inner regions will be cultivated in the Kaishan realm.

Of course, this is just a stopgap measure. With the development of the tribe in the future, the city lords of all domains should be at least in the Tianmai realm.

In this plan, among the twenty domains of the Wangu Mountains, the Hongsang River, Zhuzhuo, Lingshan, Beishan, Xichuan, Wushan, Pinggu, and Shishan are all on the periphery of the Wangu Mountains. The strong in the environment are the big guards.

Especially in the direction of Shishan, to the southwest is the Fengchuan area, where there is still a big monster hidden in the gods.

Of course, this kind of division has to face the current predicament, that is, there are not so many Tianmai fighters in the clan, but fortunately, it can be adapted to local conditions, that is, the northernmost peripheral lands have been found out, and the opening of the mountains can be temporarily used as guards.

However, Hongsang River and Zhuzhuo in the southeast, Xichuan and Shishan in the west, these places must be guarded by Tianmai Realm, and he also plans to relocate the tribe, and move the tribe headquarters to the center of the mountain range. It is also necessary to send a Tianmai realm warrior to guard it.

The tribe's migration to the north seems to be far away from the southern tribe, but it also ensures that when the tribe's strength has not developed, it will not receive the attention of the demon.

These days, one after another ore veins have been discovered one after another, laying a resource foundation for the tribe to migrate to the depths of the mountains. Moreover, the water system in the mountains is well developed. After moving to the depths of the mountains, it will only cost two or three more to communicate with the outside world It's just the time of day.

As for the relocation of the tribe, he planned to announce it at the clan meeting after the elders and guards left the customs.

At that time, the headquarters of the Xia tribe will migrate to the depths of the mountains and live in the center of the mountains. No matter which direction the mountains are in, they will be able to control them.
